Bernard the elf tries faerie wine for the first time with a faerie. Now all he can do is try to not make a fool of himself by fawning over Gale, the faerie (his faerie), when all he really wants to do is see if she tastes as sweet as the wine.
~A mood board and an excerpt of my fic~

Gale rested her hand on Bernard’s knee in emphasis, reminding him, “You’re a faerie for tonight. That means you learn through experience, through feeling. Remember?”
“Yeah, yeah, I remember,” Bernard said with forced casualness when, in reality, all he could focus on was the weight of her hand on his knee.
Breathe, he had to remind himself. He almost forgot to breathe.
The faerie went on, not noticing his spiking heart rate (how could she not? He could have sworn his heart was beating so loudly that everyone at the party could hear), “You’ll have plenty of time to think later. Let’s just enjoy the party while we can.” She gave his knee a pat of finality before standing up, “Come on. Let’s get you some water. Since you still have your wits for the most part, we can indulge in some controlled flirting on the way there… if you are good.” She gave him a wink and tapped her own nose knowingly, “I think you’ll find flirting to be enjoyable with the faerie wine whispering in your ear.”
When she realized he wasn’t moving, only staring dumbly up at her like she was nothing short of an Angel (still had his wits indeed), she took hold of his hand and pulled him up to his feet (he was oddly impressed and slightly titillated from the seemingly effortless feat of strength on her part but that was beside the point).
“If I’m good?” It was only when his head started to spin that he realized he had forgotten to breathe completely.
Breathe, he reminded himself again. Breathe.
His nerves were suddenly so on edge, his muscles all clenching so hard that he might have started cutting off his own blood flow. His every sense felt assaulted… and all just from hearing the word ‘flirting’ come out of the faerie’s intolerable berry sweet lips (he had never tasted the lips himself but he had some theories at that point in the night) and feeling her darling, little hand pull him along.
“You know, like how if I was good today—which I was—you were going to tell me which you preferred more: cookies or kisses—“ Gale stopped their trek across the room for a moment as she downed the rest of the wine in her cup, before adding, “—which you should.” She shivered as the wine lit up in her veins.
Bernard watched with great intensity as a ruby drop of wine dripped down her chin, dislodged from her shiver after a valiant effort to cling to her bottom lip (coincidentally, he found himself wanting to do the same thing, but refrained). Instead, he swiped the side his finger up her chin to collect the drip before it stained her dress and then licked the drop from his finger like an elf possessed.
“How do you know if I’ve been good?” He asked her, noting the way her pupils bloomed just as the flavor from the drop of wine bloomed on his tongue. The burn the drop of wine offered was enough of a distraction that he didn’t have to question what he just did. His heart beat faster because it was a bold move for him, but there was a tickle of those butterflies inside his chest that moved even faster than his heart, telling him that this was a fun game and that she had said they could flirt, after all, so why should he worry?
There was something wild that shined in Gale’s eyes, then. Something that, on a regular day, might have put him on edge, but, this time, he recognized and felt in himself. She smiled and his heart flip flopped. Then she said, “That’s the trick, Bernard. You’re always good. You’re the best.”
Whatever intensity he had felt building deep inside him released at the praise, leaving him feeling soft and fuzzy inside. Serotonin bubbled up in his head so much from the kind words that he couldn’t help needing to ramble, “Aww—you really think so? That’s so nice. You’re so nice. Even when you don’t let things go, there’s still just something…” He trailed off when he realized, in delighted surprise, that she was good at playing so many games at once. He observed, “I suppose I have to tell you now, huh? That’s the real trick from you calling me the best.”
She grinned widely, her wings fluttering in excitable pleasure as she asked, “D’you like that?”
“You know, I did,” Bernard said with a laugh. He knew that being tricked would usually put him off, but the faerie wine brought a lighthearted amusement to it that made the whole thing seem too harmless to worry about. He took her by the hand and walked them through a swinging door to a side room where they could find things momentarily stored for the day’s events: dishes and cutlery, the bottles of faerie wine, spare cookies and frosting, extra snacks, juice and water.
While Gale emptied the rest of a bottle into her cup, Bernard got them both cups of water, observing with an amused chuckle, “Usually I like to stay far away from tricks but that completely tickled me.”
“Tricks always tickle more with faerie wine,”Gale grinned, clearly enjoying having someone to enjoy the art of trickery with. Her eyes sparkled in wonderful, dangerous mischief and she put down her cup of wine, as if preparing for something. Then she too innocently asked, “Imagine what it would feel like to be actually tickled right now?”
He put his arms out defensively, but it took no more than a single tap of one of her fingers to his side for him to scream as if she burned him, “I’d—AH!” He batted her hands away, finishing his sentence with a dry, “combust. Surely.” He shook his head when she started to laugh, but he couldn’t stop the smile that played at the corners of his mouth.
Bernard watched the faerie as her laughter eventually dwindled, chuckling to himself at his reaction, at the bizarreness of the situation, but, mostly because her mirth was beautiful and contagious. He remembered what they had been talking about only when his eyes lingered on her lips for too long and he found himself admitting, “Y’know, kissing is not usually a great motivator for me. Cookies are at least something that can sustain me while I have my coffee, but, right now, I have to admit that I’m finding kissing to be something I’m having a hard time getting off my mind while I couldn’t give a flying reindeer about cookies.”
Something shifted between them, then. It wasn’t a big shift. Really, it was only a change in awareness. But, it was the first time he had opened himself up to her and said something that could mean… something. It could have been the dim lights of the room, it could have been the faerie wine, it could have been a long time coming. He couldn’t be sure of much other than that he thought he just might want to kiss her if she let him—and for some reason that fact felt like it should have been a big deal, but at the moment it didn’t feel like a big deal at all.
Gale took his admission with stride, leaning against the counter and wondering in a dreamy, playful sort of way, “Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could be sustained on kissing alone? A peck if feeling peckish. A light smooch for lunch. A grand open-mouthed devouring for dinner. A saucy little lick for a taste of dessert.”
When he moved closer to her, though, she straightened back up and daringly hooked her fingers to the bottom shirt, tugging him the rest of the way over to her as he said, “I think I’d like that very much.”
She leaned back into the counter, letting him cage her in. He had only just (finally) begun to nuzzle into her neck when he felt her stiffen against him. Then she was pushing at his chest and he was pulling his head back to see what was wrong. She stumbled through her words, faerie wine catching up with her enough to tangle her sentences with her conflicting emotions, “Wait—we can’t—I can’t—there are boundaries—oh, dear it’s hard to think straight around you on a good day.”
She groaningly threw her head back, frustrated with herself or the situation or him, he wasn’t sure. Bernard tried to pull away from her, afraid he had done something wrong, but the faerie’s fingers had a firm hold on his shirt. Confusion mixed with his worry, spiking his anxiety until his clarity blurred into strong, swirling emotions. Rejection, confusion, guilt, anxiety, feeling cornered, feeling lonely, feeling voracious, feeling pulled in a million directions. He felt everything so intensely and so loudly that he was practically deafened from everything else around him.
It was only when Gale’s hands found his face and she forced him to look into her eyes that he was able to follow what she was trying to tell him. “Listen, before you get lost in a spiral—no, don’t look at me like I cancelled Christmas. I am stopping this because I care.”
He stumbled over his words, worry coloring his tone as he desperately insisted, “I didn’t mean to push your boundaries. Honest. We were just talking about kissing and I thought—“
“No, not my boundaries,” she clarified, “Your boundaries.”
“My boundaries?” That might have been the craziest thing he had heard all night. It definitely wasn’t his boundaries that had told them to wait. In fact, he had felt very certain about what he had been about to do—what he still wanted to do—until she had stopped him.
He stuttered, trying to make sense out of what was happening, “But… but I want…” he trailed off, searching for the right words. He wanted so much. He wanted everything. He swallowed, eyes searching her face as he repeated, hoping she would understand, “I want.”
Gale brushed her thumbs along his cheekbones soothingly, forcing him to be still and catch up with himself as she patiently explained, “You, sweet cheeks, are under the influences of a faerie’s wine and her wiles. You’re hardly cross eyed, but you are not sober. If we kissed, it would be a lot harder to stop than you realize because of what the faerie wine wants from you, because of what it wants you to want.”
He listened to her in silence, enraptured by her presence. He reveled in everything about her in that moment. She, who could be both strong and gentle. She, who could be so wanting and yet was able to push her own wants aside because she was also caring. He felt inspired by her strength; he could strive to be as strong. He felt motivated by her care; her intentions for him were heartmeltingly noble and it made her interest in him mean so much more. He felt emboldened by her want; she was just as affected by him as he was by her (she had been the one to pull him close, hadn’t she?).
She had been under his skin all week and now he knew what to do about it.
The facts added up in his faerie-addled mind and he felt even more sure than ever before that he had to kiss her. He felt wild, but also like he was in more control in that moment than he had ever been before in his life. “I bet I could stop," he dared, bargained, promised, eyes glinting as he stepped closer to her. His hands found her hips as if he had been searching for them for years. He ducked his head and looked at her, waiting for one sign, one look, one assent, and he would finally (finally) taste those lips.
Gale pressed her hand to Bernard’s mouth, tilting her head forward so closely to his that their foreheads bumped. Her eyes stayed locked with his as she said, firmly but with good spirits, “And, if you still feel this way once you’ve sobered up, we can test that theory. You know where my room is. Just give my door a knock and I’ll eat you up. I’ll ravish you right on the rug in front of the fire place.” She kissed the back of the hand that covered his mouth before pulling away, working on disentangling herself from his arms.
Feeling the absence of the kiss that should have been his, would have been his if her hand hadn’t been in the way, was like a cruel joke. Longing tugged at his heart from the action alone and then to have her pull away from him completely? To just go on as if something cataclysmic hadn’t been so close to happening—as if he didn’t still want it to happen? He felt cold without her near. His hands felt empty. “This isn’t fair,” he pouted, close to stomping his feet like a wronged toddler.
Gale drank deeply from the first cup she grabbed at. She caught her breath, muttering wryly, “Imagine feeling so strongly more or less every day of your life.” She wasn’t facing him but he could see how she shook her head and raked her fingers through her hair.
He crossed his arms over his chest to stop himself from grabbing out at her, the pressure of his arms against himself as a poor man’s replacement for having a faerie in his arms. He forced himself to lean against the counter as he comprehended what she said. It was hard for him to imagine feeling the way he currently felt all day every day in any capacity. He asked in wonder, “Do you, really? How do you get anything done?”
She shrugged, still keeping her back to him as she explained, “It’s all I’ve known. I have a hard time understanding how folks can get anything done without all these pent up feelings to use as fuel.”

Clurichaun
Often considered as a cousin or variation of the more well-known leprechaun, the Clurichaun is a fascinating and lesser-known character in Irish mythology. Usually found as a solitary fairy, the Clurichaun is a mischievous, little creature, much as the leprechaun. Still, the Clurichaun possesses unique qualities and behaviors that are sometimes connected with luxury, celebration, and a taste for good ale or wine. Although leprechauns are usually connected to secret gold pots and shoemaking, Clurichauns are more focused on fully enjoying life, especially with relation to feasting and drinking.
Among the most prominent features of the Clurichaun are their inclination to preserve wine cellars and breweries and their passion of alcohol. Folklore holds that the creature will guard a house and its liquor supplies if the Clurichaun is treated well by leaving out offerings of wine and honoring its presence. But if mistreated or ignored, the Clurichaun could turn into a disruptive prankster that ruins items or disturbs the dwelling. Depending on how people handle the Clurichaun, they thus represent a dual nature, both good and bad. Like its leprechaun relative, the Clurichaun is sometimes shown with traditional Irish attire, comprising a pointed cap and a red or green coat. Said to have a roguish demeanor, it enjoys singing, narrative, and merrymaking. Clurichauns are easygoing and hedonistic, loving their position as protectors of earthly pleasures, unlike leprechauns, who are sometimes shown as hardworking and intent on their hidden treasures. The Clurichaun is a distinctive emblem of Irish mythology since it reflects the celebration's delight and the need of hospitality by means of this contrast. Often acting as warning stories, stories about the Clurichaun encourage people to handle their resources—and those who protect them—with regard and respect. The acts of the Clurichaun reflect the conduct it comes across, therefore imparting a subdued moral lesson on the results of avarice or neglect. Its character also reminds us at the same time to savor life and discover satisfaction in the small joys of excellent company, cuisine, and drink. In this sense, the Clurichaun has evolved into a delightful and timeless character in Irish narrative, providing via its antics wisdom and comedy.
Though less known than the leprechaun, the Clurichaun has a particular place in the fabric of Irish myth and tradition. With its mix of festivity, humor, and sporadic mischievous behavior, this creature captures both the simplicity and complexity of human nature. Shared stories from the Clurichaun help to preserve Ireland's rich oral legacy and serve as a reminder of the need of harmony in our contacts with the surroundings.

ILLICIT AFFAIRS

Pairing: Azriel x fem!reader
Summary: On a dreaded visit to the Hewn City, Azriel finds more than he bargained for. It’s only fitting that when your wildest fantasies come true in a land of nightmares, it's with a forbidden visitor rather than your own husband… After all, who could be a better affair partner than the master of spies?
A/N: Cheating is wrong! But aesthetically? It’s so rich! Can you tell I’ve been listening to ‘Scotty Doesn’t Know' on repeat? And thanks to other songs like ‘Ivy’ and ‘Illicit Affairs’, an illicit relationship just sounded sexy and sad! So here’s a messy little story about cheating WITH Azriel. Let me know what you think of the reader character, I tried to make her unlikeable at first but then I became sympathetic to her so idk where we ended up.
Content Warnings: 18+ only, smut, cheating, alcohol, female reader, shitty unnamed husband (not physically abusive), slight dom/bdsm overtones, casual shadow bondage, thigh riding, oral M receiving, PIV sex (no protection bc they are faeries and this is fiction, but put on your mental magic condom if you must), gross liberties taken with whatever’s going on with the Hewn City, no use of Y/N
Word Count: 7.6k
Masterlist
✸✸✸
Wine. A warm bath. Silk sheets.
“Did you see her shoes? With that jewelry?”
Your sapphire hand mirror. A lobster bisque. The perfect shade of red lipstick.
“Oh, did I see them? They practically assaulted me the moment I walked into the hall!”
You took a sharp breath, and continued to block your surroundings with mental images. A massage. The look on your husband’s face when he sees you chatting with another male–
“She has no shame.”
You snorted, abruptly disguising it with a cough. The two ladies looked at you with barely concealed disdain, clearly not convinced by your weak cover up. You schooled your features into a cool mask once more as they drifted away through the throng of guests.
Well then, so much for keeping yourself entertained during this dull gala. You had a pretty pathetic collage of curios to distract yourself with. The concepts were a flimsy screen between you and the stale evening ahead; monotony at its worst.
You’d rather be anywhere but here.
A foolish thought, you realized, given that you’d never been anywhere but here, except for brief diplomatic visits with your husband. Those were always awfully dull, your every movement watched and examined out of suspicion. You couldn’t blame your hosts. After all, you were from the Night Court, spawn of the worst bastards of Prythian.
No shame! You recalled the gossiping courtiers. Now who were they to judge someone for having no shame, when they were here gossiping in front of the Mother and everyone? And in equally appalling finery, no less! One of the two females was actually trying to get away with a bright orange dress. You sighed, almost pitying her for her sorry attempt.
But this was the Hewn City, at the heart of the Court of Nightmares, as it was deemed in hushed whispers. There wasn’t enough air here to waste it on pity.
Faeries of all kinds waltzed and chattered around the ballroom before empty thrones. Gaudy gowns and coats and heels and stoles– was that fur? Mother help us– blurred together as you took in the choked crowd. The decadent buffet? Untouched. The sparkling beverages? Much indulged. Such was typical.
What was the purpose of this event? You couldn’t quite recall. They were endless, these damned things.
What an odious affair. You’d been playing a game in your mind, to keep yourself from going mad. The goal was to picture all your favorite things, everything that brought you solace, and to try and hold them all in your mind at once.
Pointless, you chided yourself. It hadn’t stopped you from being disturbed by the insidious chatter of fellow partygoers. Despite the pleasant premise of the mental game, the montage left a bad taste in your mouth.
You had pictured everything that you looked forward to, and it had all taken up so little space. The game was ended so quickly. Your lips pursed, your good mood gone sour. You blamed the two females for interrupting your train of thought. They’d ruined your concentration, that was it.
You needed a drink. Your glass had been empty for far too long, you noted with displeasure.
Where was your husband anyways? He’d gone off for refreshments a while ago. Probably mixing with the elite, making sure his face was seen. He fancied himself a real big player in the court's inner workings, but you sincerely doubted it. Unfortunately, as the one he fucked most frequently for a number of years there, you knew firsthand how his ego was built on fantasy.
How long had he left you alone here? You couldn’t say. You weren’t exactly minding his absence. Temporary bliss was still bliss, you mused, resolving to find some real entertainment. You clicked your tongue once in distaste before gliding away from the pillar where you’d been camped out for the majority of the function.
Your husband always laughed at how you admired the fabrication of the city. But you couldn’t resist it. The pillar behind you was one of your favorites. Carved of dark stone, hordes of twisting figures decorating its face. They appeared to be in agony at first glance. A closer look revealed that they were in fact artfully engaged in all kinds of fornication. If only all pain could be turned into pleasure as easily as carving ebony.
Fuck, if you weren’t in a philosophical mood this evening. Sober, too.
Your husband was nowhere to be seen, a small mercy. He always hated your moods. You couldn’t blame him, you supposed, but you did regardless.
Right as you made it to a servant with a decanter of amber liquid, the room fell into an uncharacteristic hush. Your fingers plucked a full glass before you turned to scan the room for the cause.
Your eyes fell on the figures advancing from the center of the room as if they’d just appeared there. But of course, they had.
You scolded yourself as you glimpse the High Lord and his entourage.
Of course! How could you have forgotten? After all, that was why your husband had been so insistent on your attending tonight. The High Lord had specifically requested this event be thrown to honor… shit. Something. They did so many of these meaningless parties, often without any real reason, other than to show off that they could.
Your attention turned fully to the newcomers. They cut quite a fine figure. You understood why they caused the room’s collective breath to catch.
A subtle movement to the right of the High Lord grabbed your eye. You couldn’t help your own sharp intake of breath as you noticed the shadows flickering around the imposing Illyrian. In his leathers and simmering blue siphons, there was no mistaking him. It was the shadowsinger.
A thrill escaped down your spine at the realization. You’d heard hushed whispers about the High Lord’s spymaster, but you hadn’t known that he would be here tonight. His menacing quiet was unnerving. It was no wonder that rumor spoke of a seething rage masked by his calm demeanor. He never visited the city under the mountain these days. You wondered absently what he was doing here now.
He held himself with precision, a weapon at the right hand of his Lord. His wings were folded tightly, but it did little to hide their looming presence. The horns hovering over his shoulders only added to his threatening presence. Beneath his wings, his broad shoulders were relaxed, his demeanor casual as he strolled with cool power to stand beside the throne. Once stationed, he crossed his arms, his muscles emphasized with little effort. Fuck. What you wouldn’t do to feel them over you.
Irritation simmered across your chest as your husband sidled up to you, your budding fantasy shattered.
He didn’t so much as look at you as he shoved a glass in your direction. You received it with equal affection, now awkwardly holding two glasses. His attention rested fully on the group by the throne. What an ass.
The perfume on his coat was a scent you would never choose for yourself; it was far too sweet for your tastes. Your nose curled unconsciously– not at his infidelity, but at his poor taste. You hoped he would never buy you a similar perfume. Let him enjoy it on some other tramp.
As it was now, his lust was focused on the conversation at the head of the room. The Steward, Keir, motioned to your husband, and incidentally you, as he spoke to his Lord.
You felt your husband’s excitement, and you were certain it was evident to the blind and the dead as well. You sighed, resigned to the lack of tact that sullied his political sensibilities. He’d been gifted a hunger for power, without the typical tact for courting it. Shameless, the word flashed again in your mind. Yet, you couldn’t deny that he’d secured a decent knowledge of the court’s security in his current position under Keir.
He practically skipped when the Steward gestured for him, and you followed with a more metered step after passing your now-empty drinks off to a nearby attendant with a grimace. Despite your efforts, you knew that dignity was not something you could afford to value in this court. Still, you kept your chin up as you followed your male counterpart, straining at the stifling society. You drowned out his obsequious remarks as introductions were made between the males.
You wished the female one was here, the Morrigan. She made your blood freeze, but you preferred her cool disdain to the slimy males before you. You swallowed your irritation, keeping your face neutral as meetings were arranged.
To cool your mounting headache, you entertained yourself by taking in the shadowsinger out of the corner of your eye. A scant glance rewarded you with a stunning image of the male, who was intently focused on the conversation at hand. His handsome features were darkened with swirling shadows.
He was even better up close. You’d lost count of the instances where you’d caught a pleasant figure across the room only to be disappointed upon closer inspection. But this male was a specimen, indeed.
His dark brows trailed into a strong nose, his strong jaw upheld by a sturdy throat, one that you’d love to sink your teeth into. His hands were thick and scarred. You pictured what they could do to you, how meticulously they could pick you apart, stroke by savage stroke. The tough material of his leathers was snug in all the right places, tight around his massive thighs. Your thoughts erupted with fantasy at the details of his statuesque figure.
What held your attention the most, though, were his eyes. You would expect them to be dark, shadowy. Yet they were a rich amber, and startlingly bright. You flicked your gaze away quickly, but their burn lingered in your ears as if he’d caught your stare outright.
It was a pity he was just standing there. You wondered absently how you could cause a distraction, maybe fainting or starting a fight so you could see him in action. Your fantasies were interrupted as the conversation wrapped up, your husband butchering platitudes that he surely thought charming. You avoided choking on your disdain, but only narrowly.
As you walked away, Azriel released a deep breath. Cassian cleared his throat, a shit eating grin lurking beneath his cool features.
You’d kept your face perfectly pleasant throughout the whole interaction, not so much as a twitch to betray your insidious thoughts. But far be it from you to maintain propriety in the presumed privacy of your own mind...
Little did you know how loud your thoughts were. You couldn’t have hidden them, not from the present company, even if you’d known you ought to. Your thoughts were written in your skin, in your scent, hidden to most, but obvious to the High Lord’s elite.
“Well, well, Azriel. It’s just irresponsible for you to torture our citizens like that,” Rhys teased his brother as you walked out of earshot, oblivious to the three pairs of eyes taking in your generous retreating figure.
“I thought I was going to hurl if she didn’t stop undressing you with her eyes,” Cass drawled, fluttering his lashes in a dramatic imitation.
Azriel just snorted and shook his head.
“Hey Rhys, remember when Azriel was just a fledgling and couldn’t get any?”
“You mean yesterday? Yes,” Rhys responded with equal humor. “Since when was he the most fuckable?”
“Jealous, much?” Azriel cut in before Cass could continue the vulgar jokes.
“You could do worse,” Rhys said suggestively, amusement playing underneath his carefully arranged expression.
Azriel hummed. “I think I’d better do some recon later tonight, what do you think?” The boys grinned at that, Cassian hiding his snicker from the room behind his hand.
It was easy for Azriel to take their jeering in good humor when his ego had been rubbed just right by your attention. His eyes found you again in the crowd, your figure filling out your dress in a way that was downright sinful. He couldn’t wait for this damned event to be over.
✸✸✸
Your husband, the idiot that he was, wasn’t a fool. So, he had Azriel’s room heavily guarded and warded that evening.
Which was exactly why Azriel found it so simple to steal his way into your quarters, with the guards conveniently occupied elsewhere.
The dark was especially thick as he crept down the halls of the Hewn City’s elite. He hated to spend a night here, wasted in the dank underbelly of a mountain. The event had passed without incident, if only barely. It was only a thinning scrap of discipline that kept him from lashing out at Keir. His greasy tone had Azriel’s fist curling around Truthsinger all night. If he was being honest, it was only his respect for Mor’s claim on her own father’s life that held his blade.
That blade stayed sheathed even now, as he slipped soundlessly into your dwelling. It was almost insulting how easily the wards and locks were bypassed.
Azriel found you exactly where his shadows had anticipated, curled up on a cushioned chair in front of a roaring fireplace. A needless extravagance, given the magic that heated the whole city.
You were still in your dress from the ball, edible as ever, and your hair has been let down. His eyes trailed the mussed locks around your throat as you swallowed a mouthful from a crystal cut glass. You set your drink down on the low table beside you.
His silent steps faltered as he spotted a second glass, lightly sweating in the warm air. Was your husband home after all?
As his shadows moved soundlessly to canvas the apartment, you paused with your hand still on your drink.
It took every inch of Azriel’s discipline to keep his composure as you turned to face him. He shuddered at the sparks roiling in your expression.
You'd been expecting him.
“It’s considered polite to knock, you know,” you stated. He was frozen, pinned under your unexpected gaze. Your eyes raked over his tall figure, drinking him in with barely concealed desire. His fingers twitched.
“And it’s impolite to stare,” he shot back.
You smiled at that, teeth glowing sharp in the firelight.
“Touché.”
He drifted further into the room, his shadows skirting around the perimeter, flanking you as he approached. The fire dampened at his power permeating the air. You didn’t even bother pretending to flinch.
“Have a drink with me,” you invited, unperturbed. “Or would that be improper, too?”
In reply, Azriel grabbed the spare glass, and knocked it back in one smooth motion. When he set it down, two of his digits stroked the delicate rim gratuitously, his eyes never leaving yours. He snagged your drink from under your fingers and perched above you on the arm of your chair, dauntless as ever.
He was playing a dangerous game, stealing what wasn’t his.
“We weren’t introduced,” he began casually as he stared down at you.
“Oh?”
“I saw you earlier tonight,” he said, his syllables crisp. “Typically, someone might introduce their spouse to the High Lord and his retinue.”
“Ah,” you said, understanding. “He’s had so much on his mind,” you excused your husband’s lapse in manners with a dismissive wave of your hand. He was many things, but you could never claim him to be poorly mannered. At least not outside the home.
“Is that what you are to him?” came the reply. “An afterthought?”
Your silence was answer enough.
He continued, menacingly, “I can’t understand that. I could hardly think of anything else all evening, with you there, and in this outfit.” His eyes bored into your soul, his blunt words making you blush. Not out of embarrassment, but in exhilaration.
“I can’t say I understand him, either.” You were annoyed at the topic, this was not what you’d expected to talk about with the gorgeous male towering above you. In fact, talking had little to do with your hopes for the evening…
“And where is he tonight?” Azriel pressed. The question was unexpected.
“Privacy is one of the few luxuries I have,” you whispered seductively.
The shadowsinger scoffed at that, eying the expensive interior where you sat.
“I doubt that.”
“Are you calling me a liar?” He levelled you with a look, and waited patiently for a real answer. You swallowed, deciding your pride should learn to live with the truth. “I don’t know where he is. Well, I know the answer is someone’s bed, certainly. But where? With who? I don’t ask anymore,” you admitted.
Azriel nodded. He wasn’t judging you, you realized. He was just gathering information, calculating. His eyes narrowed as his contemplation clicked.
“So what I’m hearing is that it wouldn’t be terribly untoward, all things considered, if I fucked you in his bed?”
You gasped at his ugly words, even as they sent a shudder straight to your core. His responding smile was a wicked thing, dripping with dark promise.
“I saw how you looked at me this evening.” He dipped his head to speak lowly in your ear. “You were practically begging for this.”
His lips brushed the sensitive shell of your ear as he sat back. Your breaths were dangerously uneven now, your heart was in a riot under your ribs. He looked intimidating above you, the firelight painting him in aggressive shades of crimson. Yet his eyes were like syrup, enticing amber pools oozing with arousal. Dimly, you registered him set his drink aside.
“What are you going to do about it?” you breathed, hardly trusting your voice.
His hand came to cup your jaw roughly, his thumb caressing your bottom lip.
“What would you have me do?” he countered.
“Kiss me.”
At that, he launched forward to capture your face fully, his mouth meeting yours in a furious kiss. You tasted your husband’s best whiskey on his mouth, and you moaned sinfully at the flavor. He took the opportunity to explore your mouth with his warm tongue. His heady taste ignited a hunger low in your gut. He was unraveling you with precision, your teeth scraping against him messily.
As he moaned your name, you grinned. You weren’t sure if he’d remember you, after all, but you’d certainly hoped.
“Fuck, I’ve missed you,” he groaned against your mouth.
“How long has it been?”
“Centuries? At least,” he guessed.
Memories flooded you, unbidden, as his rough jaw worked yours, your moans mingling in the hot room.
He’d been fully grown the last time you’d seen him, of course, but somehow he seemed more mature now.
It had been a brief encounter, but pleasurable, when you’d befriended the Illyrian ages ago, in the calamity of your youth. You’d never gotten too close to him, you doubted his brothers even knew about you. You were neither of each other’s firsts, but he was certainly a highlight in your sexual history, you now realized with chagrin.
“You’ve made out well,” he said roguishly.
“What?” you muttered, confused, before you saw how he was glancing around the place, noting the plush rugs and fine ornaments. “Oh, yeah. They managed to marry me off advantageously after all. It’s cushy,” you shrugged.
“Impressive work,” he deadpanned.
“Yeah, well we can’t all be blessed with ungodly strength and good looks.”
You were shocked when he laughed at your playfulness. You couldn’t recall his grim face laughing, but as you saw it, it felt right on him. Perhaps you’d erased the image. Or maybe he was simply different now.
“Are you calling me handsome?” he flirted lowly, his lips brushing your cheek, as he grinned mischievously.
“I’m not going to be calling you anything if you keep sitting on your ass! I heard you were watching me all night, and I asked you to do something about it,” you huffed. You were floored that he’d noticed you, that he’d remembered you.
He growled and kissed you again quickly before pulling you up. You went to lead him to your bedroom, but you didn't make it very far before he had your back pressed against the wall. His kiss was bruising, like he couldn’t believe it was really you, and he needed to make sure. It was a strange sensation, to have an unrecognized dream be realized so viscerally, to be entangled with him again.
Only when your lungs were screaming for air did he pull back; he was as insatiable as you remember. Your breaths came in heavy pants as he held you firmly against the wall of your husband’s living room.
His leg pressed into your clothed center, and you whined noisily at the contact. His pupils dilated, and he pressed his leg more firmly against your core. Your hands tangled in his hair, and you tugged tightly at his scalp as you felt the pressure right where you needed it.
“If you do that, I'm going to finish right here,” he growled. His words only thickened the pulse that was building low in your abdomen.
Effortlessly, he removed your hands from his sensitive scalp and pinned them above your head with his shadows. The position pressed you close to his chest, trapped by his firm body. Your breasts brushed his front, the contact riveting.
He softened his harsh actions by placing warm open mouthed kisses down the column of your throat. It was torturous, his teeth scraping over your pulse point.
“Now,” he purred, “are you going to be a good girl and do as I say?”
At the moment, you couldn’t imagine doing anything other than his bidding, entranced as you were by his actions.
“Yes,” you promised.
“I knew you were smart. On your knees for me, angel.”
He released your hip with a gentle tap. You slid down the wall, your arms still bound above you. He caught your wrists as you kneeled, using them to press you against the wall with one hand. The position wasn’t comfortable, but you paid no mind as you made eye contact with his straining leathers.
You leaned forward to nuzzle the outline of his cock beneath his clothes, mouthing over his tip. He shuddered, his fist tightening on your wrist.
“Please,” you slurred into him. Your lips continued working along his clothed member.
“Fuck. Listen to you beg for it,” he groaned, his pelvis shifting towards your face involuntarily. He deftly undid his belt, popping it open with one hand. The action was erotic. His nimble fingers made quick work of his leathers.
When he finally uncovered himself, you moaned at the sight. Consistent with the rest of his anatomy, he was impressive.
A particularly thick vein had your mouth watering in anticipation. You parted your lips, your tongue falling open, ready for him. He was pretty, and you loved to take pretty things and make them your own.
He eased his thick head onto your waiting tongue, and groaned deeply at the contact. Your warm mouth was an instant ease to the tension in his head, replacing its pain with a delicious coil in his abdomen. His wings shivered, falling limp as you took him deeper.
His taste was intoxicating, salty and thick. You breathed through your nose, looking up at him through your lashes as you drooled around his girth. One of his hands was braced against the wall, his expression simmering with torment. As your watery eyes met, he moaned at the sight of you crouched under him in your gloriously disheveled state.
“Fuck, look at you taking me so well. Right where he could walk in and see,” Azriel sighed.
Your eyes widened at his words. Your cunt throbbed at his obscene comments and you whined.
“Do you like that? Being such a slut for me?” he laughed, the sound thick with need.
He moaned again as you began to tongue his length. You traced his thick veins generously before you began to bob your head. Your pulse felt heavy under the pressure of his grip on your hands, pinned to the wall. His hips stuttered as you found a rhythm with your mouth.
When you pulled off a bit to give special attention to his weeping tip, sucking gently, his free hand came to hold your hair. He shushed your startled noises as he pressed you further onto him. You frantically swallowed, choking as he forced himself down your throat. He held you there for a moment before he began to pump himself into your mouth.
Gagging at his size, you breathed through your nose in time with his slow thrusts. He groaned, the noise landing painfully in your soaked core. You whined, and the vibration around his girth made him hiss.
“You look fucking divine on your knees like this,” he praised haltingly. “Doing so well, angel.”
If your mouth wasn’t occupied, you would have told him how divine he looked too. Even fully dressed, with just his fly popped open, he looked like a walking vice, every inch an indulgence. His hair was tousled from where you’d raked your fingers through it, and his expression was just as unkempt. The labored look on his face was beautiful, even as the pleasure was so depraved.
He was a practical stranger, and you were sucking him off in your husband's hallway. The priceless carpets would be soaked by the time you were through.
You relaxed your jaw further, trying to take more of him down your throat. One erratic movement, and your teeth scraped his shaft lightly.
He hissed, pulling you off of him abruptly.
“Shit,” he panted. He didn’t sound mad, yet he looked fierce with a sick appetite.
You tongued his flushed head, apologetic. “Let me finish, I can do it,” you rasped.
“I know you can, baby,” he assured you, “Fuck, trust me, I know.”
You attempted to lean in for him again, and cried when he held you back. You looked up at him, tears streaking your cheeks. He ran a thumb under your eyes before pressing his thumb to your lips. You sucked him in eagerly, sighing at the slight gratification, teething brattily at his fingernail. His abdomen spasmed at the sight of you so worked up over tasting him.
“Did my cock make you stupid?” he cooed. “No need to beg, baby, I’ve got other plans for us.”
He pulled you up, kissing you languidly as you pressed against him. Your hip dug into his arousal, sending fresh pleasure through him. He licked the spit from your jaw, moaning at the pure eroticism.
“Want to show me your bed, baby? I promise I'll make it worth your while,” he touted, and his eyes shone deliciously with depravity.
You grabbed his hand and pulled him along into your lavish bedroom. When you arrived, you twirled around dramatically to gesture at the room, ever the tasteful hostess.
“As promised…” you present the intimate room. The sapphires on your favorite hand mirror winked at you from your nightstand as you led him towards the silk cushions.
He hummed in appreciation, pausing to pretend to take in the interior. You blushed, even though you had nothing to hide. Suddenly, you felt vulnerable having him here.
Finally, his eyes fell to you standing in invitation before him, next to your bed, which was perfectly built for two. His sensual stare sent a rush through you, reigniting your excitement at the delicious affair.
He brought his hand to brush your hair back, grasping at your scalp. The agonizing male pulled you towards him. His kiss was relaxed this time, his hot tongue meeting yours in a gentle caress. His other hand skimmed your side, exploring from your waist to your hip with infuriatingly gentle motions.
For a moment, you allowed yourself to enter a daydream: that this was your life. You imagined that his strong, steadying grip was a real embrace. Maybe you’d have stumbled home together after another horrible event, and the whole way you’d both have mocked the ridiculous room full of ridiculous people until they were nothing but a ridiculous memory. He would kiss away the dullness until your soul was brilliant and shining again.
Suddenly, you were horrified to feel your eyes thickening with tears.
“Don’t be gentle with me,” you urged him.
“Need me that badly?” he tried to tease, but his voice was thick with lust. When he reconnected your mouths, his grip was crushing, his teeth grazing your bottom lip in his desperation.
Despite your wet eyes, you hadn’t really been sad. You’d been empty, absent from your own life. You didn’t need his pity. You needed his fire, a living coal to stoke your own with.
Here you were in all your wealth, trapped, and embarrassed by your barren, threadbare life. Not even sheets of the highest thread count could cover the rags and shambles of your existence. You were ravenous, you realized, for something to make you feel alive.
And here Azriel was, like a vision from a different lifetime, kissing you senseless like it was his secret mission all along.
“I’ve been waiting to do this all night,” he murmured against you. Before you could question his meaning, he was slipping the straps of your dress down your shoulders, his mouth following to taste your freshly exposed skin.
As your dress pooled around your feet, his growl filled the room with pitch black energy. As his eyes darkened at your nude form, you thanked the Mother that you’d foregone undergarments.
“Did you know? Did you know that I was going to be there tonight when you put this on?” he breathed, teasing sensually.
You debated lying, but thought better of it. “No,” you confessed.
He whistled shortly, “I’m just that lucky.”
He grinned at you before attaching his mouth to your naked flash, his teeth scraping the sensitive flesh of your nipple.
“You’re perfect,” he remarked between sloppy kisses to your chest.
You flushed impossibly, floored by his attentions. His soft mouth was expertly working your tits, biting lightly and harshly licking, while his rough hands explored your backside. It felt dangerously like worship, even as he consumed you for his own satisfaction. The ecstasy was twisted; you’d had no idea he was even in your city when you’d dressed for the dreaded evening out with your husband.
“On the bed,” he commanded, spit shining on his chin when he rose finally from your chest.
You fell back against it, shamelessly watching as he unfastened the straps of his leathers in a torturous spectacle.
“You’re gorgeous,” you whispered, half to yourself. His wings twitched at that. Pride surged through him as he finally removed the last of his clothing, easy work courtesy of his hastily redone pants. His thick cock slapped to attention at his stomach. Your chest was rising rapidly from your position against the pillows. You looked so comfortable, so enticing.
“You’re one to talk,” he flirted. You reached for him, intending him to join you. Instead he sat on the edge of the cushion, tantalizingly out of reach.
“Can you keep your hands to yourself?”
No, you thought.
“Yes,” you lied aloud.
His eyes narrowed. Shadows crept from his shoulders to slither up your form. You shivered at their featherlight touch caressing your form.
When you moved your hand to play with them, you gasped, finding your limbs restrained again under their power. Your arms were above your head, and your legs spread open under you.
“That’s what you get for lying," Azriel shared sympathetically, as if he wasn’t the one controlling them. You pouted and he clucked placatingly, his hand caressing your ankle. Was he ever going to let you touch him?
“Come here,” he cooed. He pulled you roughly onto his lap, so you were straddling one of his thick thighs. He kept your hands secured behind your back while his came to grip your hips, steadying you.
You whined as he flexed his rigid muscles under you. Sweat was already forming a thin sheen across your boiling flesh.
“You didn’t listen, and then you lied,” he listed. “You’re lucky I'm feeling generous tonight, I'm going to let you get yourself off here.”
Your jaw fell open at his words. What? Did he expect you to fuck yourself on his thigh?
“Well?” he prompted.
His hand gripping your hip moved to squeeze the flesh of your ass impatiently. Yet you didn’t move, testing him. You weren’t used to this, not getting what you wanted.
A crack rang through the room as he smacked your ass. You moaned at the sudden contact, pain flaring along with a sudden sense of urgency. Your hips started to move, slowly at first, then with more vigor as you gained the confidence to seek some friction.
“That’s it, good girl,” he cooed.
He watched you through heavy eyelids, your breasts bouncing right in his line of sight. When you glanced at his crotch, you saw the evidence of his desire prominently straining against his toned abs. It only fueled your fervor to see how you affected him.
You looked so fucked out above him, circling your hips desperately on his muscular thigh. His huge hands were secure on your waist to steady you, but he wasn’t actually helping. You grew frustrated, desperate for stimulation, the pressure not nearly enough to soothe the throbbing ache between your legs.
“Az, please.”
“Hmm?”
“Please touch me,” you begged.
He obliged, but again, not as you’d hoped. His tongue traced swirling patterns over your breasts, and one hand came up to palm them. The touch was maddening, only heightening your sensitivity. Your pussy was soaking his thigh, yet only his gaze deigned to touch your undulating hips.
“Not there,” you complained in a huff. It was infuriating to be clenching around empty space.
When he finally brought his rough fingers to your clit, you cried out in relief. Your hips stuttered as he rubbed tight circles over your sensitive bundle of nerves.
Sweat dripped down your spine, muscles in your shoulders and thighs straining as you chased your bliss. Your moans crested as he pressed his textured fingers harshly against you. Right when your release was about to shatter you – his hands abruptly pulled away, forcing you to still your hips.
“Did I say you could come?”
His fingers left your form as he growled. You gasped, red faced and panting. The look on his face was predatory, lit with brazen lust.
“On the floor, on your knees.”
Dizzy with the broken orgasm, you obeyed awkwardly, his shadows still constricting your hands. The floor bit into your knees, the sting was a jarring sensation in contrast with the arousal that was dripping between your thighs. Despite your discomfort, you were determined to finish what you’d started earlier in the hallway.
When you leaned in to take his cock into your mouth, he gripped your throat roughly. Your mouth opened on reflex, but he held you there, just out of reach.
His other hand came to tug heavy strokes at his cock, right in front of your face. He moaned savagely, fixated on the sight of you slick and naked below him. Your back arched at nothing, frantically searching for some friction.
He looked like a god above you, his shadows swirling deliciously along his powerful form, his wings shaking with pleasure. His dark hair fell into his eyes, and stuck to his sweat-dampened forehead as he panted and pumped himself.
“I thought you said you were going to fuck me?” you said hoarsely, desperate.
You saw the challenge land when his molten eyes sharpened. His hand stilled.
“I don’t remember you being such a brat,” he growled, but his eyes gleamed wickedly.
He pulled you up for a kiss, his hands coming to play with your ass, massaging viciously. The dull ache between your legs throbbed at his hot touch.
“And I don’t remember you being such an ass,” you retorted, but your words lacked any real vitriol, eager as you were for his touch. He sensed it, and let your bratty words slide.
“I've missed that mouth almost as much as your tight pussy,” he purred devilishly, unfazed.
He must have meant it too, since two of his thick digits trailed between your legs while he spoke. There was a gleam in his eyes as he felt your slickness, and it wasn’t humility.
“So wet, baby,” he muttered. “All this for me?”
You whined and leaned into his shoulder, shuddering at the teasing stroke. His shadows slipped away from your wrists, leaving no discomfort save for your sore tendons.
Azriel tapped your ass once, his assured satisfaction putting him in a good humor.
“Up on the bed for me, angel,” he directed.
His command sent a shiver down your sweat chilled spine, the anticipation heating your skin. You mounted the bed, and he positioned you on your stomach. He pulled a pillow under your hips, kissing your shoulder tenderly. You shook with nerves. Your arousal was seeping down your legs. You’d been waiting for this since you’d seen his unmistakable physique striding through the crowd.
“That comfortable?” he asked, some care peaking through the haze of his lust.
“Yeah, that’s great.”
“Okay,” he said. “Let me know if I’m being too rough, yeah?”
You nodded eagerly, pressing your chest to the cushions to ease your ass back against him. The towering male ignored your spurring move, instead he pulled you up to your knees for a kiss.
You couldn’t be mad at him as he captured your lips so tenderly, even as he was unwilling to give you a moment of control. Your body was pulsing with a delicious heat, pressed against his chest, tasting spice and earth on his tongue.
The Illyrian’s soft lips were depraved, practically sucking at your teeth. His ferocity left you lightheaded, you were helpless under his power. His hard need against your lower back brought your mind to the matter at hand.
“Too scared to fuck me, huh, Az?” you taunted.
He bit your lip, snarling as you pressed your ass against his throbbing length.
“This your first time?” you mocked.
Azriel let out a humorless laugh at that.
“You’re trouble,” he hissed, grinding his cock against your lower back. You whined at the fiery contact, so close but so far from what you needed.
“You like trouble,” you grinned.
“I do,” he agreed.
With one last searing kiss, he pushed your shoulders down so that you came to rest on your forearms. He draped your legs over his thighs. The dips between your legs and pelvis burned as he brought your hips up to meet him where he kneeled.
He dragged his cock along your soaked folds, teasing you. He groaned deeply, the sound landing in your abdomen. Without warning he slammed into you. You bit the pillow deliriously to stifle your moan as he cursed.
“Shit. I forgot how perfect you were for me, baby,” he purred as you adjusted.
“Fuck, you feel so good,” you cried.
He responded with another groan, and pulled out near fully to ram into you again. You clenched around him involuntarily.
“Fuck,” he moaned, “you’re gripping me like…” he trailed off into another deep groan, the sound vibrating like a shock through your flesh.
“Faster, Az,” you gasped.
Something in him snapped when you cried his name. The male began to pound you without restraint. His hands on your hips were sure to leave bruises, but you were far beyond care. His pace was relentless, gone berserk in his lust. His shadows leapt out, suddenly larger than life. The tendrils of shadow felt acutely like an audience, even pressed into the cushions you felt the heat of their attention.
“That's it, baby,” he growled. His praise made your flesh rise, a whine pitching from your heaving throat.
“Does he make you feel this good?” The question surprised you, as did the crooked thrill it sent through your teeth.
“No,” you confessed with a sigh. His resounding gasp died in a strangled moan as you clenched around him at his perverted words. Served him right, you thought, as he destroyed your insides.
“Say my name,” he commanded suddenly.
“Azriel!” You barely managed to voice it as you moaned wildly.
“Who’s making you feel this good, huh?” he taunted. “I want the whole city to know.”
You screamed his name as he pushed into you with a particularly punishing thrust. His cock scraped your walls agonizingly. It was addicting how he filled you so perfectly.
His hand came to press up on your lower stomach, and he groaned at the feeling of his cock filling your guts. The pressure had you bucking your hips onto him, chasing the feeling.
“Look at that,” he murmured, and you weren’t even sure if he intended you to hear. “You’re taking me so well.”
Long gone was the reserved male from the event this evening. He had been replaced by an insatiable double, just as dark but deliciously unrestrained.
The pillow beneath you was a useless anchor amidst the crashing waves of pleasure. Even with your eyes squeezed shut, your senses were a riot. The room filled with your tandem grunts and moans, and the scent of your sex laced the thick air. You felt his mouth on your spine, heat unfurling down your back, and your bones went unstrung under his hot touch.
The ache in your abdomen had erupted into an ecstatic pulse. Your pleasure mounted as the shadowsinger’s moans became breathier. His hips began to stutter, yet his pace was punishing as ever. He brought two thick fingers to rub fast circles on your throbbing clit as he hurtled towards his release.
“I’m gonna come,” he warned with a salacious whine.
He pulsed inside of you as his thrusts stilled abruptly. You couldn’t help but turn your head and watch as he came undone. It was as satisfying as your own bliss to witness his.
His eyes were shut tight in ecstasy while the rest of him slackened, his back arching involuntarily as he convulsed. You’d never seen something so jaw achingly erotic in all your days.
Amidst his orgasm, his coarse fingertips never paused their assault against your heat. You arched back onto him, the feeling of his aching member sending you into oblivion. The pressure of his expert hands paired with the erotic sight of him drunk off your core had your release shattering over you.
The waves of bliss that had been cresting slowly all evening crashed over you all at once in an undeniable blow. It had your body tensing and loosening all at once, your nerves on fire. He worked you through it as you cried, trembling beneath him.
When your fists eventually unclenched from the sheets, he came to an inevitable halt. He pulled out gingerly, mindful of your present state of hyper sensitivity.
He kissed your shoulder as he turned you over. He checked you for any damage, just like you were a comrade fallen in battle. You were utterly spent, but unharmed. The exhaustion was gratifying, a welcome ache from an evening much enjoyed.
“That was bliss,” you told him.
“Top shelf, for sure,” Azriel agreed, eyes still dancing over your naked form like he was committing it to memory.
His face was pleasantly unguarded as he spoke. Something suspiciously like a smile played on his swollen lips. The spymaster’s features were surprisingly easy, decompressed as he was in the aftermath of such cataclysmic delight.
You had been the perfect diversion for him, and he for you. True to form, he didn’t idle with you as you lounged, fully drained, in your rumpled sheets.
Azriel dressed efficiently, which is to say that you weren't yet prepared for his stunning body to disappear under his clothes, not so quickly. That was the thing about indulging a vice, these things were never meant to linger.
He stood next to your bed, suddenly assuming an air of professionalism, like you hadn’t just been screaming his name.
“If I'm ever in town again…” he began, tentatively.
“I’ll be here,” you laughed. You meant it humorously, but the words rang hollow in the empty air.
“Good,” he noted with satisfaction.
His words weren’t quite a promise. Still, the meager sentiment had something almost like hope flaring in your sunken chest. Darkness was wrapping itself thickly around his form, like he was gathering his things to leave.
He kissed you once more, slowly, as if he was memorizing the feeling of your mouth on his. And then he was gone, taking his shadows with him.
The sudden light of the room hurt your eyes. You blinked away the tears, swallowing the horror that rose at their arrival, bitter as bile. You sniffed once before snapping to work.
Within a few minutes, you’d erased every trace of your charmed evening.
The shadowinger hadn't left so much as a hair as a sign of his presence, and even the bed was cold again by the time you crawled under fresh sheets. Sleep came mercifully quick, surrendering you to a world of dreams.
✸✸✸
The next night, your husband was gone again, his dinner untouched on the long table where you'd carefully laid his place at the head.
Usually, on nights like these, you would relish the freedom of the empty home and set a fire in the hearth. It was a frivolous excess, but so was most of your life.
The fire was part of a game you played, where you would picture everything you hated, everything and everyone you wanted to see burn. Some nights, it soothed you to picture it, your personal apocalypse. Other nights, the warm flame felt like an insult, its wagging tongues mocking your petty, helpless game. Nights like those were the worst, the void more humiliating than any offense. They left you feeling vapid, foolish.
Tonight however, instead of your customary game at the hearth, you found yourself sitting alone in the wide expanse of your bed. You’d lit a solitary candle; not to banish the darkness, but to invite the soft shadows it spread. Their quiet company was a cold comfort to your heart, where a fragile, unfamiliar flame was just flickering to life.

A/N: Thanks for reading :) I can't for the life of me write a one shot so this might have to become a blurb-y little series of an unpredictable and torturous affair. Who better to have as an affair partner than this sexy spy? He’s big dicked and discreet– everything you need ... Re: ‘Scotty Doesn’t Know’ – "I did her on his birthday" is the *coldest* line and I feel like Azriel is a little shit on the down low and would get off on that... If you have scenarios in mind for future episodes, please send them my way ;)
Let me know what we think! And did the last sex position make sense?? I was struggling to explain it.

All Over Again

Pairing: Azriel x Reader
Summary: You're drunk. Your mate is trying to get you home. Only problem is—you're really, really drunk.
Word count: 1.5k
Warnings: Drinking, absolutely zero attempt to establish a pov on my part
a/n: A cute little drabble because if it all fell is making me a tiny bit sad and I love this trope <3
Main Masterlist ♡
~~
The world spun around you as you let out a delighted laugh, faerie wine pulsing in your veins. This was bliss, and—admittedly—the most fun you’d had in months. The workload you’d been dealt this last year was one for the books.
“Exactly how many drinks did you have?” Feyre asked you, red and green rays lighting up her face in time with the beat inside Rita’s.
“So many,” you yelled back, flinging your arms around her shoulders. “So many and I’m going to have more!”
The High Lady chuckled and swayed with you as you dragged her around the dancefloor.
This was good for you, your friends had decided, a girl’s night where you could let go of all your responsibilities and inhibitions and then sleep for a solid two days afterward. Feyre and Mor had agreed to stay relatively sober to watch over you, but Mor was just as intoxicated as you were at this point.
“Mor!” you screamed, the shout directed fully into Feyre’s ear. She flinched, but you just continued. “Mor, come here! We can all dance together!”
The blonde was pulled into the circle of fae, but very little “dancing” took place. You were far past the level of functional inebriation.
“We should get Azriel,” Feyre shouted over your head, trying to catch the attention of her very distracted friend.
But Mor just laughed and asked, “Who the hell is that?” as she left the pair to join a woman in a dazzling purple dress at the bar.
Feyre bit back a sigh, still feeling patient with the small amount of alcohol running through her. “We should go home, yeah?” she attempted, catching your clutch as it tumbled out of your hands.
You responded with a loud, “Woo!” and Feyre knew she needed to call in reinforcements. A quick outstretch of her mind and the request was sent.
“This is so much fun!” Your smile was infectious, Feyre replicating it unconsciously as she watched you jump around. “I love you!” you screamed at her—again, directly into her ear.
It was a few short minutes before Azriel’s presence was felt inside the overcrowded pleasure hall. Small streams of black shadows had begun to slink around your shoulders and arms with you none the wiser to their arrival. Feyre smirked when you jumped at a hand on your back.
“Hello, my love,” Azriel said, voice low as he bent over to relay the words. “Having fun?”
Your responding screech had panic flashing across the spymaster’s face, the man simply watching as you threw yourself against Feyre’s chest. He sent a tentative hand out in your direction, but you only pressed further into your friend.
“Y/n—” Azriel began.
“I’m married,” you seethed. “I have a mate,” you doubled down.
Azriel blinked.
He looked around him, checking behind his tightly coiled wings and past the broad expanse of his shoulders.
When no other fae appeared to be lurking near his mate, Azriel returned his attention to the pair in front of him, his hazel eyes meeting your piercing (but rather hazy) glare.
“Y/n, I am… well aware that you have a mate,” he replied, shaking his head to match his slow words.
You scoffed, sending Feyre a glance as if to say, “Can you believe this guy?”
“Well, then you should be well aware—” A shaky, misguided finger pointed close to where Azriel was standing “—that I am not interested in you. Got that?”
A smile paired with furrowed brows conveyed the vast array of Azriel’s current feelings. He watched as you sent him another scathing glare and turned back to your High Lady, noticing the uneven way you stood and the handful of your belongings being managed by your friend.
“She’s had a lot to drink,” Feyre emphasized. “I’ve been trying to get her to go home but she won’t budge. I thought you’d be able to persuade her. She’s been talking about you nonstop.”
You were maneuvered into a quieter hallway as Feyre recounted your adventures of the night, making sure to catalog each drink she saw you consume. Azriel fought back a grimace as he pictured you in the morning. You had the worst hangovers.
“Y/n,” Feyre began, offering you an encouraging smile as you blearily blinked at her words. “Azriel’s here. Do you want to see him? He said he’d bring you home with him.”
This time, you gasped, face betraying you as it heated with embarrassment. “You called Azriel here?”
“Mhm, and he said he’s terribly exhausted and needs you to come home for the night.”
You gaped. “He wants me to come home with him?”
Standing at your back, Azriel felt his expression pucker in confusion. Hadn’t you just chastised him for flirting with you, a married woman? A married woman who was married to him?
Feyre seemed to agree with that sentiment as she nodded and said, “Of course he does. He always wants you with him.”
Your eyes grew wide, hands reaching out to grip Feyre’s shoulders in a serious motion. “Did you tell him?” you panicked. “Fey, you promised you wouldn’t tell him. It could ruin everything.”
Azriel was suddenly catapulted back about 20 years to when you were too nervous to tell him you were in love with him and Azriel was too much of an idiot to tell you that you were his mate. But that time had passed, thankfully, long ago. The two of you were now very much in love, both mated and married shortly after the inner circle had meddled in your affairs.
Looking past his disorientation, Azriel caught your wide, pleading gaze directed at Feye.
“Y/n?” he asked, craning his neck to catch your eyes. When you slowly turned in mortification, a soft kind of adoration pulled at his chest. “Hey,” he smiled. “I’m going to take you home, alright?”
“O-Okay,” you blushed, taking his outstretched hand in your own. “To my apartment?”
“No, I thought we’d go to mine. That alright?” he asked, voice gravelly and low and echoing off the long hallway inside Rita’s.
It didn't matter that you were actually going to his house. The one the two of you shared.
Instinctually, Azriel grabbed your hand, twinning his fingers with yours and pulling you closer. You, however, so drunk that you were unsure of your current whereabouts or today's date, let out a shaky breath at the intimacy. Azriel felt your fingers tremble between his own.
“Is this okay?” he found himself asking.
You nodded jerkily, and Azriel relished in the feeling of falling in love with you all over again. It was an immensely better experience than you pushing him away and accusing him of preying on married women.
His married woman, but that was beside the point.
A few steps in silence. You shivered with the rush of cool air outside the pleasure hall. Azriel shifted his wings out, enveloping you in their warmth.
“Um,” you began, fiddling with his fingers as they rested beside yours. “It’s really nice of you to walk me home.”
His heart was going to burst. Seeing you, his mate, so shy and reserved and hopelessly enamored by him in such a public way was endlessly endearing.
“Of course. I would never let you walk home alone,” he replied evenly. And then, to spice things up, he added, “I told you I would always protect you. I meant that.”
“You said th—”
You whipped your head to the side as you spoke, losing your balance with the alcohol coursing through you. Your feet fumbled over each other and Azriel caught your hip to deter you from making a full-on beeline for the ground. After he was sure you were not going to plummet to your death, he tucked your hair back from your face.
“You are my mate,” he said, so assuredly. It was a truth ingrained within him. “I will always walk you home.”
Your eyes went wide, fingers wrapped tightly around his arms as he held you. You held eye contact with your mate, a feat in and of itself with the state of your head, and he watched as your tongue came out to wet your lips.
And then, just because he could—because you were his and because you probably wouldn’t remember this in the morning—he whispered, “I love you.”
The sharp intake of breath that followed his words was apparently too much for your alcohol-addled brain. You let out a small squeak, blinked at him several times, and then, you fainted. Directly into your mate's arms.
Azriel carried you home (the one you two shared, to clarify yet again), silently laughing to himself, feeling quite smug at the outcome that night. 20 years and he still felt the same. 20 years and he was still in disbelief that he got to walk you home.

seung-mong's kinktober 2024!
gulp~ they're right behind me arent they? well... more like on top!
☆BANGCHAN☆
whats your favorite scary movie? - after a mysterious call in the middle of the night threatens to ruin horror movie night with your friends, you cant help shake the feeling that someone's watching your every move. at this point you dont know what's worse: a creepy stalker managing to sneak his way into the house, or how awkward and fidgety chan's been all evening!
includes: ghostface!bangchan x fem!reader, stalking, choking, slight knife play, blood kink, +more!
☆LEEKNOW☆
and so the lion fell in love with the lamb - after moving to romania against your parents' wishes to live a peaceful life with your dying grandfather, your dreams are plagued with visions of pale, almost shimmering skin, droplets of crimson red blood with the taste of the sweetest wine, and sharp fangs that make you sweat in your sleep. your grandfather can only urge you to pray, despite the growing dread in the pit of his stomach at the sight of the bruises that linger on your skin. not to mention the puncture wounds right by the side of your neck!
includes: vampire!leeknow x inexperienced fem!reader, stalking, religious themes, marking, +more!
☆CHANGBIN☆
not all monsters do monstrous things - changbin's been acting different lately, and you're hesitant to talk to him about it. after the accident that left him bloodied and bruised, the last thing you want to do is bring up how he's become so distant lately, passing up on opportunities to hang out, refusing your physical affection, ditching you for the new group of friends that seemed to appear out of thin air. but when he stands you up on your birthday dinner on Halloween, you know he's crossed the line!
includes: werewolf!changbin x fem!reader, childhood best friends trope, depictions of gore and violence, size kink, manhandling, strength kink, + more!
☆HYUNJIN☆
its amazing, the love inside, you take it with you - finally, a space of your own! a safe space for you to practice your spells without accidentally setting your mom's heirlooms on fire. a safe space for you to brew your potions without your mom complaining about the smell and how you're doing it wrong (you've figured). a safe space for you to chat with your cat companion, milo, without your mother rolling her eyes. a safe space... with an awkward, clumsy, GOSSIP of a soul with unfinished business!
includes: ghost!hyunjin x witch fem!reader, voyeurism, pervy hyunjin, subby hyunjin, femdom raahhh, overstimulation, dacryphila, +more!
☆HAN☆
you could be happy here, i could take care of you. i wouldn't let anybody hurt you. we could grow up together! - han thinks hes seeing things. he usually enjoys camping by himself, but when a bright light and a high pitched noise makes his head throb and his nose bleed, he genuinely thinks he could die. now he REALLY thinks hes seeing things because.. is that someone falling from the sky? after deciding to sleep on it, he meets you. and uh, oh yea. he's definitely seeing things!
includes: loser nerd!han x alien fem!reader, subby hanji, han jisung is a SIMP LOSER, bondage, use of some kind of aphrodisiac, choking, +more!
☆FELIX☆
absence makes the heart grow fonder…or forgetful - never being one to believe in fairytales, you were the only one in your village brave enough to explore the thick woods across the train tracks just south of your home. finally, a place where you can think in silence, with no one to disrupt your writing. when the creatures of the forest begin to make themselves known to you, you ignore all the signs telling you to run. especially when the so-called evil trickster fairy is the most beautiful boy you've seen in your life!
includes: faery!felix x fem!reader, kinda inexperienced felix, lowkey corruption kink (litrally if u squint), felix has wings (that r sensitive), overstim, +more!
☆SEUNGMIN☆
this is true love- do you think this happens everyday? - seungmin is too young for this, he thinks. the youngest prince to take the crown in centuries, and the war between his kingdom and the kingdom of the forest is intensifying. his people are going missing, and he has no idea what to do. it does not help that the king of the forest scares him shitless. he turns to you for help, the last witch of your line- you can thank his family for that!
includes: prince!seungmin x witch fem!reader, kinda enemies to lovers (the trope belongs to him i fear), hatefucking, biting, bondage, +more!
☆JEONGIN☆
we all go a little mad sometimes. haven't you? - you really should have filled up your gas tank. your car breaks down in the middle of nowhere, and the storm outside only further dampens your spirits. its dark and empty for miles, besides the little light that flickers on the side of the road. you brave the journey on foot, shivering, and soaking wet. your heart drops when you see the shelter, old and run down. thank god the young gentleman inside is kind enough to offer you a bed for the night!
includes: serial killer!jeongin x fem!reader, primal play, fear play, choking, knife play, jeongin is really rouch, +more!
